I use the Record Collector standard to grade my 7"s - as below:

M is ONLY for reissues / new releases

M- is a pretty much unplayed record for me - any obvious signs that a record has been played and I usually downgrade to an EX+

EX+ is a very strong grade for me - just showing some signs of being played but no noise / cue burn / crackle / styrene burn at all.

VG+ is for records that have obviously seen some wear and have had a good few plays and may even have light intro crackle but play very, very well.

VG is for records with quite a bit of wear and surface markings and some noise / crackle but still a very good player

VG- is my lowest grade and VG- records for me are in bad shape - lots of sound quality deterioration and many, many surface marks - not nice.All media links are directly underneath each item in red – just hover your mouse over the link and when it turns blue click on it and it will take you directly to the YouTube page or my own soundfile / scan.

The T.S.U Tornadoes 'My Thing Is A Moving Thing' / 'I Still Love You' (Ovide / USA / 1969 / VG) £75 £60

( Sadly – this copy seems to have a condition flaw…visually, it's M- all the way but it seems to have been mastered badly as it's cracky here and there – especially in the quiet parts…2 great sides – topside is killer Funk while flip is a lovely Xover….rare one on this label….the condition problem is only on the 'My Thing…' side… )

( Rare UK-only 45 taken from their indemand, £300+ rated 'Heaven & Hell' LP. These are the best 2 sides off said LP by a country mile. 'Tobacco Ash Sunday' is total killer, sounds like a slightly funked up Traffic jamming with The Small Faces. 'How Do You Feel' is equally good. Monster double-sider with serious Modernist appeal….beautiful copy here…also a big Paul Weller (live) fave... )

K.C White 'We Need More Love' / Brad & Ossie All Stars 'Blackness In Dub' (RasAdbra / Jamaica / 1970s / M-) £40 £20

Hott Snow 'Let Nature Take It's Course' / 'Do It' (R' Cade / USA / 1970s / M-) £30 £15

( Top Funk double-sider – a side is a banging uptempo while flip is a little slower and none the worse for that…topside reminds me of East Coast Connection 'Summer In The Parks' – I've never actually had this with 'Do It' on the flip before – it's usually 'L N T I C' pt 2 – much harder with the flip… )

The Trademarques 'I Can Set You Free' / 'Free Your Fears' (Reginald / USA / 1960s / Ex+) £40 £25

7165

King Arthur 'Hey Baby' / 'I Like Whatcha Doing To Me' (Soundscape / USA / 1970s / VG+) £60 £35

( Gaining in price / demand all the time – one of those ever-growing band of tunes that is wanted by both Soul and Funk scenes alike – just a good record, period… )

7167

( 2 more excellent sides from Joe – one of THE finest Latin / Soul vocalists ever….these 2 cuts are wonderful – mid-paced but oh-so-soulful and expressive…this copy is a bit grubby so I've priced it low – it actually looks like it just needs a good clean…outstanding… )
